📚✨ What an AMAZING start to this year’s Sharyland ISD Summer Reading Program!

Students and families gathered to kick off a summer filled with reading, learning, and adventure. Participants enjoyed engaging stories, fun activities, a nutritious lunch provided by our Sharyland ISD Child Nutrition Program, and each child received a brand-new book to take home and enjoy.

A special thank you to Dairy Queen Shary and F&P Brands for joining us and supporting our young readers during this exciting kickoff event! ❤️📖

Thank you to everyone who helped make the morning so special. We look forward to continuing The Great Reading Quest at our next session on Tuesday, June 9.

📖 Keep reading, keep exploring, and keep the adventure going!
